Your opinion/advice...
I ain't never satisifed. . . lol looking for some advice here. the specs for my system (below), seem to be the highest stable fsb overclock I can achieve. while this number is very respectable, i kinda feel like i should be able to do better.

I ain't never satisifed...lol
looking for some advice here. the specs for my system (below), seem to be the highest stable fsb overclock I can achieve. while this number is very respectable, i kinda feel like i should be able to do better. for an $800 dollar system, its sweet...but anything over 158 on the fsb causes massive instablility while 158 or less is 100% stable. I've got about 130 gigs of games and software on my little home network...so I know stability.
my agp voltage is maxed @ 1.7v, and my DDR is maxed @2.9v. (and yes i've tried all sorts of different timings on it, and the 4to3 cpu/mem div.)
My vcore is currently @ 1.575 in bios but always shows .5v higher in pcprobe (1.625). ??? Do you think i have hit the limits of this cpu or would pc2700 ram make the difference? cooling has not been an issue...even when testing the limits, I seldom break 40c/104f. Also, do any of you know of any bios mods for my p4b533.
Advice, comments, criticism, opinions all welcome...thanx in advance

(hijacking my own post, lol)
I've tried all different voltages on my cpu, but another possibilty just occured. I've got a puny 350W PSU that came with my Chieftec tower. could this be part of the web of hardware the has defined the limits of this setup?
oh, and just out of curiosity, any of you found any good reason to use the soft quadro part of rivatuner on a g4 ti?
